Eddie Mass, born at Burnt Fork, Wyo., January 6th, 1878, son of pioneer
residents of this county, Mr. and Mrs. Phil Mass, both having passed to
their reward some years ago, died very suddenly last Thursday at Burnt Fork.
Mr. Mass was fifty-one years of age at the time of his demise, and had

He leaves, as immediate relatives, a wife, one son, Ralph, twelve years
of age; a married daughter, Mrs. Milton Austin of Ogden, Utah; four
sisters, Mrs. R. L. Fosdick and Mrs. S. H. Harvey of this city, Mrs.
Lucy Petersen of Salt Lake City and Mrs. Emma Perry of Vernal, Utah; two
brothers, Johnnie and Phillip Mass, both of Burnt Fork.

snow and the condition of the roads to that section, many of his friends
and relatives were unable to attend the last sad rites.
DC said he was found dead in the field from heart failure.
